Indiana Governor Mike Pence says the federal health care law is preventing a medicaid expansion.
Pence says the only way he would approve the expansion would be if the state is given the choice of using its "Healthy Indiana" plan to cover new members. Pence also says the Hoosier state does not plan to build a hybrid health exchange with the federal government.
The state's Medicaid rolls could increase by 427-thousand people under a full expansion.

No surprise...it's been nothing but bad for EVERYTHING.
One late addition is making it a FEDERAL CRIME to get the nutrition statements wrong about fresh food....which will end grocery and C-stores from carrying them. Liberals are so cruel!
